Ember CSS Transitions

This addon provides a nice way of defining CSS Transitions for Ember Components. Which means, only css based animations for performance - and no animation library needed.

Ember CSS Transitions is heavily inspired (and CSS compatible) with Vue's CSS Transitions.

Animations are completely based on CSS classes.

How it works

Ultimately you define your animations and transitions with only css like:

/* initial state */
.example-enter,
.example-leave-to {
  opacity: 0;
}

/* final state */
.example-enter-to,
.example-leave {
  opacity: 1;
}

/* easings */
.example-enter-active,
.example-leave-active {
  transition: opacity 0.5s ease-in;
}

And using the included modifier like:

<div {{css-transition "example"}}>
  <h1>Hello world</h1>
</div>

or by manually specifying classes, perfect for libraries like Animate.css and Tailwind CSS.

{{!-- Using Tailwind CSS provided classes --}}
<div {{css-transition
  enterClass="opacity-0"
  enterActiveClass="transition-opacity duration-500 ease-in-out"
  enterToClass="opacity-100"
  leaveClass="opacity-100"
  leaveActiveClass="transition-opacity duration-500 ease-in-out"
  leaveToClass="opacity-0"}}>
  <h1>Hello world</h1>
</div>

If you are using TailwindUI then you will see transition instructions included in the code, as in this example:

<!--
  Slide-over panel, show/hide based on slide-over state.

  Entering: "transform transition ease-in-out duration-500 sm:duration-700"
    From: "translate-x-full"
    To: "translate-x-0"
  Leaving: "transform transition ease-in-out duration-500 sm:duration-700"
    From: "translate-x-0"
    To: "translate-x-full"
-->

You should map these instructions to this addon's API in the following way:

TailwindUI	Addon
Entering	enterActiveClass
From	enterClass
To	enterToClass
Leaving	leaveActiveClass
From	leaveClass
To	leaveToClass

Install

Run:

ember install ember-css-transitions

Note Using ember-cli-autoprefixer is suggested for CSS transitions:

ember install ember-cli-autoprefixer

Tested in the following browsers / platforms:

• IE 10
• IE 11
• Microsoft Edge
• Chrome
• Firefox
• Safari
• Android
• iPhone

Note: IE9 does not support CSS3 transitions / animations. They must live with no animations / transitions.

Glint usage

css-transition ships Glint types, which allow you when using TypeScript to get strict type checking in your templates.

Unless you are using strict mode templates (via first class component templates), Glint needs a Template Registry that contains entries for the element modifier provided by this addon. To add these registry entries automatically to your app, you just need to import ember-css-transitions/template-registry from somewhere in your app. When using Glint already, you will likely have a file like types/glint.d.ts where you already import glint types, so just add the import there:

import '@glint/environment-ember-loose';

import type CssTransitionsRegistry from 'ember-css-transitions/template-registry';

declare module '@glint/environment-ember-loose/registry' {
  export default interface Registry extends CssTransitionsRegistry, /* other addon registries */ {
    // local entries
  }
}

Usage with <template> tag

For usage in gts or gjs files, modifier is exported from the index:

import { cssTransition } from 'ember-css-transitions';

<template>
  <div
    {{cssTransition
      enterClass="opacity-0"
      enterActiveClass="transition-opacity duration-500 ease-in-out"
      enterToClass="opacity-100"
      leaveClass="opacity-100"
      leaveActiveClass="transition-opacity duration-500 ease-in-out"
      leaveToClass="opacity-0"
    }}
  >
    <h1>Hello world</h1>
  </div>
</template>
